"Only I wasn't steering anything, not even myself. I just bumped from my hotel to work and to parties and from parties to my hotel and back to work like a numb trolleybus. ... I felt
very still and very empty, the way the eye of a tornado must feel, moving dully along in the middle of the surrounding hullabaloo."
-- Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar |

"On the surface, it sounds irresponsible, but to flourish in a rapidly changing world, you actually need to make more mistakes. Fail quickly. Fail often. If you do something and it
doesn't work, just recover in a hurry and try something else. ... Help develop a culture that is willing to fail its way to the future."
-- Price Pritchett, Culture Shift |

"There is something demoralizing about watching two people get more and more crazy about each other, especially when you are the only extra person in the room. It's like watching Paris from an express caboose heading in the opposite direction -- every second the city gets smaller and smaller, only you feel it's really you getting smaller and smaller and lonelier and lonelier, rushing away from all those lights and that excitement at about a million miles an hour."
-- Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar |

About an hour ago, I went outside to assess the parking situation.
The two vehicles parked in handicapped spaces had hang tags (looks like I was wrong about the plate); the third such space was empty. Whomever it was provided for probably hasn't moved in quite yet, or hasn't moved in completely; as such, I'm also going to be keeping track of how long that space stays empty, and if it's more than a week, I might call the office and ask what's going on.
Update: I was actually right about the plate -- two hang tags and one disabled plate, so all three appear legitimate. That doesn't mean I won't be keeping my eye on things out there, though.
